Private video of Pakistani actress leaked online, stirs controversy

The Pakistani television drama industry is widely esteemed for its dignified and reserved portrayals of female characters, with strict censorship policies that restrict intimate physical gestures on screen. In Pakistan, even simple acts of physical intimacy, such as a hug, can attract censorship scrutiny. The regulatory board often edits out scenes it considers unnecessary or inappropriate. 

However, Mathira Khan, a well-known figure in the Pakistani drama industry, is challenging traditional norms with her bold social media presence. While the industry typically avoids physical displays of affection and maintains a conservative image, Mathira stands out with her daring Instagram posts that often spark public discussion.
